International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Elec

28、ped with an air-acetylene burner. The atomic absorption spectrometer shall meet the following criteria. WARNING Follow the manufacturers instructions for igniting and extinguishing the air-acetylene flame to avoid possible explosion hazards. Wear tinted safety glasses whenever the burner is in opera
29、tion. a) Minimum sensitivity the absorbance of the most concentrated calibration solution (see7.4.4) shall be at least0,25. b) Graph linearity the slope of the calibration graph covering the top20% of the concentration range (expressed as a change in absorbance) shall not be less than0,7 of the valu
30、e of the slope for the bottom20% of the concentration range determined in the same way. c) Minimum stability the standard deviation of the absorbance of the most concentrated calibration solution and that of the zero calibration solution, each being calculated from a sufficient number of repetitive
31、measurements, shall be less than1,5% and0,5% respectively of the mean value of the absorbance of the most concentrated calibration solution. NOTE 1The use of a strip-chart recorder and/or digital readout device is recommended to evaluate criteriaa),b) andc) and for all subsequent measurements. NOTE
32、2Instrument parameters will vary with each instrument. The following parameters were successfully used in several laboratories and they can be used as guidelines. In systems where the values shown for gas flow rates do not apply, the ratio of the gas flow rates may still be a useful guideline. 6 Sam
33、pling and samples 6.1 Laboratory sample For analysis, use a laboratory sample of minus1004m particle size which has been taken in accordance with ISO3081 or ISO3082 and prepared in accordance with ISO3082 or ISO3083. In the case of ores having significant contents of combined water or oxidizable com
34、pounds, use a particle size of minus1604m. NOTEA guideline on significant contents of combined water and oxidizable compounds is incorporated in ISO7764. 6.2 Preparation of predried test samples Thoroughly mix the laboratory sample and, taking multiple increments, extract a test sample in such a man
35、ner that it is representative of the whole contents of the container. Dry the test samples at105 C 2 C as specified in ISO7764. (This is the predried test sample.) 7 Procedure 7.1 Number of determinations Carry out the analysis at least in duplicate in accordance with Annex A, independently, on one
36、predried test sample. NOTEThe expression “independently” means that the second and any subsequent result is not affected by the previous result(s). For this particular analytical method, this condition implies that the repetition of the procedure is carried out either by the same operator at a diffe
37、rent time or by a different operator including, in either case, appropriate recalibration. 7.2 Test portion Taking several increments, weigh, to the nearest0,0002g, approximately2g of the predried test sample obtained in accordance with6.2. NOTEThe test portion should be taken and weighed quickly in
38、 order to avoid reabsorption of moisture. 7.3 Blank test and check test In each run, one blank test and one analysis of a certified reference material of the same type of ore shall be carried out in parallel with the analysis ofthe ore sample(s) under the same conditions. Apredried test sample of th
39、e certified reference material shall be prepared as specified in6.2. NOTEThe certified reference material should be of the same type as the sample to be analysed and the properties of the two materials should be sufficiently similar to ensure that, in either case, no significant changes in the analy
40、tical procedure become necessary. When the analysis is carried out on several samples at the same time, the blank value may be represented by one test, provided that the procedure is the same and the reagents are from the same reagent bottles. When the analysis is carried out on several samples of t
41、he same type of ore at the same time, the analytical value of one certified reference material may be used.

42、sfer the test portion(7.2) to a250ml PTFE beaker(5.1). Moisten with a few millilitres of water, add40ml of hydrochloric acid(4.3) and10ml of hydrofluoric acid(4.8), and cover with a PTFE cover. Heat on a hotplate at100 C, then increase the heat to200 C. Evaporate to dryness. Add5ml of nitric acid(4.
43、7) and evaporate to nearly1ml. Dissolve the salts with10ml of hydrochloric acid(4.3) and evaporate to dryness again. Dissolve the salts with5ml of hydrochloric acid(4.3). Add10ml of water and filter through a close-texture paper into a250ml beaker. Remove all adhering particles from the beaker with
44、a rubber-tipped rod, wash with hydrochloric acid(4.6) until the paper is free from iron stains, and wash the paper three times with hot water. Reserve the residue and combined filtrate and washings. 7.4.2 Treatment of residue Place the paper and residue in a platinum crucible, dry and char the paper
45、 at a low temperature and ignite in a muffle furnace at550 C. Add0,5g of sodium carbonate(4.1) and fuse over a Bunsen burner (about900 C to1000 C) until a clear melt is obtained. Dissolve the cooled melt with5ml of hydrochloric acid(4.5), heat to remove carbon dioxide and reserve the solution. 7.4.3
46、 Treatment of combined filtrate and washings Evaporate the filtrate and washings(7.4.1) just to dryness. Dissolve the salts with20ml of hydrochloric acid(4.4), and transfer to a200ml separating funnel. Rinse the beaker with20ml of hydrochloric acid(4.4) and combine these washingswith the main soluti
47、on. Add50ml of4-methyl-2-pentanone(4.2) and shake thoroughly for1min. Allow the layers to separate, then run the lower aqueous solution into a250ml beaker. Wash the organic phase by extracting with10ml of hydrochloric acid(4.4), and transfer the washings to the beaker. Heat the solution gently and e
48、xpel almost all of the4-methyl-2-pentanone in the solution. Then add5ml of nitric acid(4.7) and evaporate to dryness. Dissolve the salts with15ml of hydrochloric acid(4.5). Combine this solution with the reserved solution from7.4.2. Transfer the solution to a50ml one-mark volumetric flask, and dilut
49、e to volume with water and mix. Depending on the concentration (see Table 1), use the solution for atomic absorption measurement either without dilution or as specified. If dilution is required, transfer the appropriate aliquot to a250ml beaker. Add the amount of sodium carbonate(4.1) and hydrochloric acid(4.5) indicated in Table 1. Heat the solution to remove carbon dioxide. Cool and dilute to100ml in a one-mark volumetric flask with water. (See the note to Table 1.) (This solution is the final test
